They think that the copper & right of way & land & laws & support & taxes & benefits that they have been given by the American people now belong to them. All of those things as well as the airwaves belong to me & my neighbor & my kids & their kids & the people on the other coast & in Hawai’i & do not belong to them.

I would like to see the government start taking those things away each time that these lunatics say that they are the only people who could possibly know how to do this the right way.

They will run that network for the benefit of the people or they will be run out of town on a rail.

No tolls for you?

What other industry or business model does that? Should airlines not charge?

With the lack of competitors in the United States, these monopolistic practices will be problematic for every consumer.

The frequency is so saturated that it needs a new technology. In every country, you buy a frequency for your wireless business and it cost millions of dollars for a single frequency. That sure is a lot of added cost compared to a wireline business.

But we are slowly but we are surely losing that freedom from regulation.
There are too many vested interests wanting both profit and control.
It’s a shame.
